Christmas Tree is a "secular symbol."

Well officially it is, but we use it during the month of December as a symbol of Christmas,just like people will call a rabbit a Easter Rabbit during Easter but after Easter he goes back to *Rabbit* Now I know this sounds pretty simple but on a religious scale rabbits and Pine trees although created by GOD are secular symbols.

In other words, this time of year it ISN'T a secular symbol.

Here's an idea. Put up your Holiday Tree for the Fourth of July. Then it can be a secular symbol. This time of year it isn't, which was exactly my point earlier.
